Fortune Hill enables ambitious businesses to appoint game-changing Marketing and Commercial leaders. Our clients benefit from our deep specialist knowledge of the talent landscape, combined with a structured and meticulous research-led approach executed by subject matter experts who are fiercely committed to delivering long-term impact.
Everything we do serves our mission: to create leadership legacies by guiding clients to appoint leaders who transform business performance, elevate culture, and drive shareholder value.
We specialise in Marketing and Customer leadership because this domain has a disproportionate impact on how businesses grow and how they are perceived. For us, executive search is not about transactional hiring. It is about outcomes; specifically enabling clients to appoint leaders who deliver and enabling leaders to have more successful and fulfilling career journeys. This requires outcomes; specifically enabling clients to appoint leaders who deliver and enabling leaders to have more successful and fulfilling career journeys. This requires deep research and thoughtful assessment, in pursuit of finding exceptional people others may overlook. As a firm, we are deeply interested in leadership, and how people deliver commercial success. Our work is rigorous, thorough, and we take pride in going far deeper than traditional recruitment approaches.
Following a second consecutive of record-breaking sales growth, during which we successfully completed projects in UK, France, Germany, Netherlands, Scandinavia, Italy, and Spain, we are expanding our team.
Culture
What really makes us special is our people. At Fortune Hill, we’ve built a culture that strikes the right balance; we operate to the highest professional standards but are always friendly and enjoy working together. We all work towards shared goals and support each other along the way. And we only hire nice people, which makes coming to work every day something to look forward to.
We recently just moved into brand-new offices on Great Titchfield Street in Fitzrovia with an onsite gym and a rooftop terrace – perfect for a coffee break, phone call in the sunshine, or bit of fresh air between meetings. We’re not the kind of company with Thursday pub trips every week, but we do make time for team dinners, events, and get-togethers that keep things fun without losing focus. We’re typically in the office on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays but we treat our team like adults and the hybrid working policy is based on what works for you. That also goes for our working hours. Come to the office when it suits you, do exceptional work to deliver excellence for our clients and go home when you need to.
Our benefits reflect the same balance: excellent private health and dental cover, unlimited annual leave, Christmas office closure, tailored learning and development or coaching, and of course, the little things – like fussing over Eddie the office dog or debating who gets to pick the next playlist.
We’re also supported by a brilliant team of five Board Advisors who connect us to key people across the market and offer invaluable counsel to help guide Fortune Hill’s growth. You can find out more about our Board here.
